The development and evaluation of a training manual for pharmacists participating in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) efforts at an institution encompassing ambulatory-care, acute-care, and emergency-trauma facilities are described. The manual was developed to familiarize pharmacists who had little or no experience in CPR procedures with the equipment and medications used and the pharmacist's role on the CPR team. To evaluate the effectiveness of the manual, a 29-question multiple-choice test was administered to 35 staff pharmacists who were randomly assigned to study and control groups. Training manuals were issued to members of the study group, who were asked to document time spent studying them. Three weeks after the pretest, the same test was administered to all subjects. There was no control on the number of CPR events attended during the three-week period. The study group spent less than two hours (mean +/- S.D. = 97.5 +/- 34.22 min) using the manual. For the study group, posttest scores were significantly higher than pretest scores. The difference in pretest scores for the study and control groups was not significant, but for the posttest the study group scores were significantly higher. Because use of the manual appeared to improve knowledge of drug therapy and procedures used in CPR, the pharmacy department incorporated it into its orientation procedure.
本文描述了一份培训手册的开发与评估过程，该手册面向在一家涵盖门诊护理、急症护理及急诊创伤设施的机构中参与心肺复苏（CPR）工作的药剂师。该手册旨在让对CPR程序经验甚少或全无经验的药剂师熟悉CPR所用设备和药物，以及药剂师在CPR团队中的角色。为评估该手册的有效性，对35名随机分配到研究组和对照组的药剂师进行了一场包含29道选择题的测试。培训手册发放给了研究组成员，要求他们记录学习手册所花费的时间。在进行预测试三周后，对所有受试者进行了同样的测试。在这三周期间，对参加CPR事件的次数未作限制。研究组使用手册的时间不到两小时（平均±标准差 = 97.5 ± 34.22分钟）。对于研究组，后测分数显著高于预测试分数。研究组和对照组的预测试分数差异不显著，但在后测中，研究组分数显著更高。由于使用该手册似乎提高了对CPR中药物治疗和程序的了解，药房部门将其纳入了入职培训流程。
